I think you keep applying the ointment and stop scaping. The original tail area is much cleaner than when you started , then just observe and monitor.
Yes, thank you. That is another area of shell rot which I have been trying to describe verbally. The circling in red is much more definitive.
Yes, once a day will be fine. Just keep watching the areas and make sure they don't start to get the fungus again after you have treated them for about 7-10 days each.I tried scraping it and nothing came off so I focused more on the tail. but I decided to try scraping it today and she bled a little bit which made me feel bad. So not I will focus on that area too along with the same on the other side since it looks the same. I originally thought it was shell growth. I can't get any more to scrape off her tail so that's good right?
Is it ok if I start doing it once a day instead of 2? My job is getting stupid with the hours and today i could only do the treatment once.
You live in Oneonta, NY? Do you know Gary Bright? He is from Davenport and is a very knowledgeable tortoise breeder. Maybe he would be willing to help you if things don't improve.When i originally scraped it nothing happened but today I decided to try again and it started to bleed, poor Poe. It didn't bleed a lot just a little

My in-laws lived in Charlotteville for many years. I go up to that area at least once yearly to visit the Charlotteville Cemetery where they now are.

I do not recognize the name but maybe I will look him up and reach out to see what he says. I really appreciate all the help you have given me!
